At last, I am back with some goodies from Class 5!!

Helllooooo once again (speaking to the void that is the interweb), I have been neglecting my 'blog' recently until I had something somewhat substantial to put here, so I present you with my 'animatic' and storyboards for my idea I've come up with currently in my 5th class at AM. I'd love anyone that views this to leave me any comments/feedback they may have on ways to strengthen this piece as far as camera angles/cuts/etc. I'm going to begin the actual animation portion of things during my final class, so this is the time to get things cleaned, clear and concise. I've also included a few pics from the Cali trip in July. I went to L.A. to become the Godfather of my little brother at the Baptism. While there I also enjoyed some wine tasting courtesy of my Pa. Anyway, enjoy.











Here are the Cali trip pics:

Ok here's what I'm thinking. At scene #15 I think another shot of his face would work better. Maybe he can have a look of dawning comprehension coming over him, not quite terror yet, then you can go on as usual with 15, 16 and 17.

In #27 I'm wondering if he's going to flip over AFTER he discovers his leg is missing or before, I'm not sure which works best, but I think one might work better than the other to get an element of surprise. I'm not sure how closely your animation is going to follow this storyboard, but the position of his arms in #27 seems awkward. Would your arms really stick out that way if you were surprised? Also, if the point of this story within a story with his leg is to show that he's less freaked out about suddenly missing a leg than about clouds dropping bombs on him, remember that the expression on his face should be one of gentle shock, as if he'd dropped his keys or something.

Finally, in that same scene (#27) you show the dog coming toward him with his leg, and that seems weird to me. Why would the dog take off with his leg only to walk in a circle back to him? I expected a panned out scene of him watching the dog walk away from him with his leg, then a scene with him whistling to the dog or something and THEN the dog would come back to him with the leg.

Oh and cute baptism pics. :)
